Railing "Saddle Planter" for Porch, Deck, Balcony

An easy way to add color to a railing

Self-mounting — just slip over the railing, no screws, no brackets!

Stable; planters stay put even in windy locations

Fits a standard 2x4 railing

Dress up your deck and add color to your front porch with these convenient self-mounting planters. Thanks to a patented saddle groove, they slip right over deck railings without tools or fasteners, and they won't blow away or fall off. Choice of designer colors.

Perfect addition to the deck. Needed to soften up the hardscape of the deck and patio, potted plants just weren't enough. The railing planters were perfect, add color, interest and softness at a higher level. The different lengths of planters makes spacing so easy.

I purchased 2 Railing Planters last year. I liked them so much that I bought 4 more this year. It really adds bizazze to my deck & some privacy. I love them & have received many compliments. Tip: Make sure you measure correctly first before ordering !!

I started my first outdoor flower garden and this product succeeded my expetations! Easy to use, does not need any additional assembly and fits perfect on my porch railings! Flowers are thriving and could not be more pleased.

This item claims to be self watering although it does not have a water trough and water drains out of the holes in the bottom. It leans over on the 2 x 4 railing which is not attractive. It appears to be sturdy otherwise with my annuals planted in it.

I bought these planters for next season. They will look great on my back deck railing. Nice Quality. I cannot comment on there durability as I have not used them yet. Judging on past products I have bought from Garden Supply I am sure they will last for many years. I bought a metal planter with 3 plastic pots 25 years ago and I still and using it. Just sprayed the outside for a new finish and it looks brand new. I have not been disappointed with anything I have bought from Garden Supply over the years.
